Chinchilla Boot

Our burnishing technique on our Chinchilla Boot is an Italian inspired artisanal method, with Australian craftsmanship bringing out the richness and true characteristics of leather. First the boot upper is cut from unfinished hide; Italian dye is then applied by hand. This is followed by hours of polishing and buffing, with particular attention paid to the toe and heel. Colours are worked and re-worked to create a mesmerising tonal transition, and each one-piece-of-leather boot travels through 90 pairs of hands as it’s made. The process creates a beautiful richness and unique highs and lows on a boot.

Note: Burnished boots should be lightly polished using the Stockman’s Natural Boot Polish only. Leather conditioner will alter the appearance of the boots due to the aniline finish of the leather. Please Note; the first couple of times the boots are polished, a small amount of excess dye may come off - this will not affect the overall finish.
